Having found a demon, I've decided to raise her.

"No, it wasn't me."

Lucifer looked at Cerberus, who had remained at home, and shook her head, saying—

"I don't know, it's weird."

Lucifer felt that many unexpected things had happened this time the door was opened, and it was somewhat strange.

The landlady peeked her little head out from behind Lucifer, blinked her big eyes, and asked—

"Is it usable now?"

She shook her head, looked at the "door" in front of her, and said—

"Landlady, please wait a moment, I'll go and try."

"Is...this alright?"

"It's ok."

Even if he were thrown into the spatial turbulence, nothing would happen; he could just find a way out eventually. Lucifer's power had recovered considerably, so he wasn't afraid.

The landlady released her, nodded, and said—

Be careful.

"understood."

A purple halo appeared around Lucifer. After preparing himself, he reached out and grabbed the doorknob, and the array on the door lit up with a red light.

Click...

The door opened.

Lucifer passed through a screen of light, then looked up and surveyed his surroundings.

It was a secluded place, seemingly the back door of the shop, and then I saw Chen Ming, holding a white cat in his arms.

"..."

Lucifer stared intently at the cat for a couple of seconds, while the white cat licked its paws on its own.

Chen Ming said in surprise—

"Lucifer?"

"Yes, I'm here."

When Lucifer saw Chen Ming, he smiled slightly.

The family's Cerberus followed, and then the three dog-eared girls surrounded them, chattering away, which was a bit annoying.

Chen Ming looked at the formation that had suddenly stabilized and asked—

Has the situation improved?

"Hmm, it seems it's ready for use."

Lucifer turned around and looked at the door. Although he didn't know what was going on, it was a good thing that things had stabilized...

No, actually there is such a suspect.

Lucifer looked at the cat in Chen Ming's arms.

Chen Ming noticed her expression, picked up the cat he was holding, handed it to her, and said with a smile—

"Look, I found a cat. I don't know if it has an owner. I'm thinking of adopting it."

He looked very happy, a bit like a little child.

"...Found it?"

Lucifer thought that he did indeed like picking up random things. He had picked up her before, then Cerberus, and Dong Yi could be considered one of them too.

They randomly picked things up and brought them home.

Everyone else is picking up bottle caps, but you're picking up pretty girls?

He was holding the white cat up, making it look rather long and unsightly. It struggled a little in dissatisfaction, its blue eyes revealing helplessness.

Lucifer smiled, reached out and stroked the white cat's head, and said—

"It probably doesn't have an owner. You can keep it if you want."

"May I?"

"You can do it if you want."

That's what Lucifer said, but the white cat didn't think so. It stared straight at Lucifer, seemingly dissatisfied.

Chen Ming put the white cat down, and it jumped out of the window. Chen Ming said—

"Remember to come back if you get hungry. Don't eat anything unclean, and don't rummage through the trash."

Digging through the trash can?

What do you take me for?

The white cat turned back in the alley, seemingly giving that ungrateful man a fierce glare, before walking away with elegant steps.

……

……

Work continued, and it was already noon. Lucifer had left some food for the landlady and Dongyi before coming over, so there was no need to worry about food.

I've been busy all day.

Lucifer rubbed his forehead.

Chen Ming saw it and asked with concern—

"what happened?"

"I'm a bit tired. I used a lot of strength today, and it's been a long time since I've made such a delicate door."

Lucifer glanced at Cerberus (dog form), who was asleep in a seat. He hadn't used up much energy, but he was a little tired.

Chen Ming said—

"Go inside and sleep for a while. There's a bedroom inside. I was thinking of moving in, and I'm using a bamboo mat."

Chen Ming glanced at the sky and said—

"I'll handle the rest. Go and get some rest."

He reached out and touched her head, his eyes very gentle.

Lucifer glanced at him and said with a smile—

"it is good."

……

Lucifer went to rest, and Chen Ming began to finish up the shop. He touched Cerberus, who seemed to be tired and sleeping soundly.

After tidying up, change the sign on the door to "Closed".

Close the door properly.

The shop became somewhat quiet. He took off his apron, hung it up, then went to the inner bedroom, gently knocked on the door, and said—

“Lucifer? I’m coming in.”

Chen Ming opened the door.

Lucifer lay peacefully in bed, her slender figure and white hair making her beautiful presence even in the simple room.

Chen Ming walked to the bedside, looked at her beautiful face, and reached out to brush aside her white hair, long eyelashes, and rosy lips...

It's incredibly tempting.

Chapter 93 Together to Wushan

Ultimately, what is emotion?

Was it love at first sight, lust at first sight? Or did it grow stronger with time spent together...?

Chen Ming lifted her hair, gazing at her face, his inner turmoil growing increasingly uncontrollable. Every smile and gesture of hers left ripples in his heart.

Lucifer had become his ideal.

In his family, both his parents have jobs and support each other, working together for the family.

In his mind, this kind of relationship is normal and ideal. His other half, his lover, must also be like this, able to share the responsibilities of the family with him.

Let's live together and cheer each other on.

Undeniably, he was initially attracted by Lucifer's appearance and couldn't help but want to get closer to her, understand her, and enter her heart.

Then, after he got closer to her, he fell completely in love. She became his pillar, both at home and now at work; she became indispensable to him.

How can there be such a wonderful girl in the world?

Beautiful, virtuous, and intelligent...

How lucky he was in this world to have met someone like her.

He gently stroked her cheek, not daring to use any more force, wanting only to cherish her, to protect his precious treasure.

“Lucifer…”

His heart was fluttering. He stroked her cheek, gently leaned down, and lightly kissed her rosy lips.

It seems somewhat despicable, and also somewhat cowardly.

They dared to do such a thing while Lucifer was asleep, as if they were secretly blaspheming an angel, filled with infatuation and sin.

Lucifer was his angel.

He felt the warmth of her lips, and then saw her slowly open her ruby-like eyes.

He seemed somewhat surprised.

But both of them tacitly felt each other's warmth and moisture.

Chen Ming saw Lucifer narrow his eyes slightly, and seeing that he showed no intention of resisting, he began to push his luck. Indulgence was a remedy for him.
